[🐛 Bug]: Sorting and searching Sessions in the Selenium Grid's web interface only only applies to the displayed page

[arnonax-tr]

What happened?

The Sessions tab in the Grid's web interface allows to sort by any of the columns, and also to search for a session using a textbox. However, if there are more sessions than what's displayed in one page, then these operations only operate on the content of the current page.

How can we reproduce the issue?

* Open the web interface of Selenium Grid with many active sessions (more than one page)
* Click on the Sessions menu item (or go directly to `/ui#/sessions`)
* Sort by one of the columns, or use the Search box to search for a session ID that exists in **another page**
**Actual result:**
* Only the displayed sessions are sorted, and searching for a session that exists in another page will result in an empty search results.
**Expected result:**
The sorting and searching will apply to all active sessions (i.e. the search and sort should be done on the server side and not on the client side)
